Of the four known fundamental forces of nature, the weak nuclear force is the one with the least obvious purpose. Gravity ...

In nuclear beta decay an up quark ‘u’ in a proton converts into an up down quark ‘d,’ turning the proton into a neutron and emitting a positron and a neutrino. This work affects interpretation of beta ...

In physics, there are two great pillars of thought that don't quite fit together. The Standard Model of particle physics describes all known fundamental particles and three forces: electromagnetism, ...

Gravity is the most familiar of nature’s forces. It keeps our feet planted on the ground and dictates the movements of ...

The gravity quantum field is calculated in flat spacetime. The curved classical metric is calculated using the expectation value of the gravity quantum field. At long last, a unified theory combining ...
